Watch any movie or short that was nominated or won an Academy Award between the designated time frame (Jan 27th - Feb 27th) and post your results here; with each entry listed in numerical order, including the day watched and the movie's title. This is the basic format, please see the example below. Feel free to add your own comments about each movie watched, the year it was released, the nominations/wins it received, and other miscellaneous information, if you so desire.

The qualifications are very straight forward; that the movie or short was (or is) nominated for or won an Academy Award (in any category).

Example List:
_______________________________________________

_______________________________________________

That pretty much sums it up. Most of you should be familiar with these challenges by now, but if you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.

Again, the challenge will start on January 27th (@ 12:00am) and will run through February 27th. Any movie started before 11:59 pm on Feb 27th, but ends thereafter, will count!

Have fun!!!

Only watched 13 titles last year... but was competing with The Olympics. Will DEFINITELY do better this year! Can't wait, plan on watching a lot of stuff I haven't seen before (plus the usual staples, LOL). I am also taking a week off the beginning of Feb, so I should be able to go on a tear then... but we'll see.
